Simulation and Flight Test Data Collection to Support Phase 1 Detect-and-Avoid MOPS

The UAS Integration into the NAS (UASNAS) project is studying the minimum operational performance standards for unmanned aerial system (UAS) detect-and-avoid (DAA) systems in order to operate in the National Airspace System (NAS). The project is executing a series of fast-time simulation, human-in-the-loop experiments, and flight tests in support of this effort. Armstrong Flight Research Center is hosting a VIP Day in conjunction with the UAS-NAS Project's Flight Test 4 activity, and the Ames Project Engineer (or designate) will be presenting a briefing. This briefing will review the data collection and analysis activities for Flight Test 4 within the Separation assurance-Sense-and-avoid Interoperability (SSI) team.
